As the vaccine rollout continues, Codiac Transpo is looking to gradually increase its service back to pre-pandemic levels.
Phase one of the Codiac Transpo Service Recovery Plan was presented to Moncton City Councillors at Wednesday’s Committee of the Whole meeting.
It forecasts a year-end cost of $56,000 with a start date of June 6, 2021.
Among the highlights included in the first phase of the service return plan are 65 additional hours of service every week, a recall of three operators and service on three statutory holidays. Residents can also ride for free on Election Day, Environment Week (June 2, 3, 4) and New Year’s Eve.
